ENGlNEER.—Alexander Gordon, Esq., M. Inst., C. E. SoLicrroa.—Andrew Hinrich, Esq., 9, John-street, .Atl4 hi. In 1834 Messrs. Cassell obtained a patent for a Bituminous Composi tion, of cheap and easy access, applicable, among other purpose., to the formation of roads, streets, and footpaths. It forms a hard and binding cement ; is many degrees easier of draft than the best Macadamised road ; is not raore expensive in its original formation; and requires little or no repair for a number of years, in consequenee of being per fectly impervious to every change of the atmosphere. There is no mud in winter, or dust in summer. The sun, the rain, and the frost, are equally innocuous. The immense expenditure of scraping, watering, and incessant repairs, will thus be obviated by the introduction of this composition as a material for roads, streets, &c. Even where repairs may be required after an interval of years, they may be effected at a trifling cost of both time and money. In a word, the surface of this Bi tuminous Road is equally good at all seasons of the year; and affbrds an even, firm, and an elastic bite to the feet of horses or the wheels of loco motive carriages, and its surface.resistance very little exceeds that of a railway. The following is Sir James M`Adam's testimony before a Committee of the House of Commons, respecting Messrs. Cassell's •omposition for the formation of roads :—" It appears at Vauxhall to be very smooth and very good. I am not prepared to state how far that would last in a severe thoroughfare, but I observe the projector of that road is willing to undertake to maintain the road of a great thoroughfare at 3d. per yard per annum ; that price on the Uxbridge road would be 2641, per mile per annum, taking the road at twelve yards wide. If that gentleman (Mr. Cassell) would maintain the Uxbridge road in a good state at that cost, it would be well worth the consideration of the Metropolis Com missioners to encourage him." There is a later and a better specimen of this material hid near Messrs. Cassell's manufactory, over which the heaviest merchandize in the neighbourhood of the river has passed for three years; and which has never been repaired. The Directors of the Company are the only parties (except a party to be confined to Lancashire) who have made arrangements with the Patentees; and this they have done on most favourable terms. They have also secured the valuable assistance a the Patentees; and all pre liminary convenience at the extensive bituminous works of those gentle. men, who are prepared to supply pitch at a speciiled reasonable rate. The Directors, therefore, are ready at once to enter into contracts for the formation of these roads. This Company is totally distinct from those various Asphalte and Bi tuminous Companies which have lately appeared before the public; and which, if carried into execution in this country, will be (no doubt an un. intentional, but) a direct invasion of Messrs. Cassell's patent. . The following is an extract from Mr. Cassell's specification :—" My invention consists in cementing the materials for road-making, and for constructing docks and such like works, by the aid of coal or mineral tar, wood tar, and resinous m atters, or the products of tar, in manner herein after described, and thus producing a concrete mass, which, when cold, will be exceedingly hard, and suitable for the purposes before mentioned." That Mr. Cassell's patent gives him the exclusive right to make bitu minous roads is placed beyond doubt by the following high legal and scientific authorities—viz., the Attorney-General; Mr. David Pollock ; and Professor Daniel, of King's College:— " I am of opinion that the specification is 'not confined to the use of pitch formed artificially, and that the use of pitch or any other such solid or bituminous matter, formed by nature, in the manner and for the pur. poses mentioned in the specification would be an infringement of the patent. " J. CAMPBELL. Temple, May 4, 1838." " If pitch or tar of any description be employed for the purposes of Mr. Cassell's patent, and in the manner he specifies, it would be an in fringement of his patent, for though in his claim ho confines himself to his process, and disclaims every material separately, yet in his introduc tion he speaks of Coal or riaineral tar, wood tar, and resinous maters, or the products of tar, as capable of being used in his process, which words arc large enough to include natural tar and pitch, for pitch is only con. eentrated tar. " Temple, May 4th, 1838. DAVID POLLOCK. " 1 have carefully read and considered the specification of Mr. Cas. sell's patent for cementing the materials for road-making, &c., with re ference to the question which you have submitted to me, and am clearly of opinion that in a chemical point of view the patent would be invaded by any one making a similar compound to that which he describes, for similar purposes, with asphalte and pitch; whether it were mineral or ♦egetable pitch." " King's College, May 5, 1835. " J. F. DANIEL." Acting upon these opinions, Mr. Cassell is determined to maintain the inviolability of his patent by all and every means the law will permit. Prospectuses may be obtained by application at the Office of the Com. pany's Solicitor, 9, John.street, Adelphi, between the hours of Eleven and Four, where also applications for the remaining shares must be made, on or before the 23d instant.

COMFORTFOR TENDER FEET, &c.— HALL and Co., Wellington-street, Strand, Patentees for the LEATHER-CLOTH, or PANNUS CORIUM Boots and Shoes, the softest and most comfortable ever invented; they resem ble the finest leather, and never draw the feet. Persons subject to corns, bunions, rheumatism, gout, or who suffer from tender feet from any other cause, will find immediate relief in wearing these shoes. They are well adapted for warm climates, being more flexi ble and more durable than any other kind of shoes. HALL and Co.'s PATENT INDIA RUBBER GOLOSHES are the lightest, most useful, and economical article of the kind ever invented for keeping the feet dry. Their WATERPROOF DRESSES for ladies and gentlemen also deserve particular notice. They are so portable that the whole suit may be carried in the pocket or reticule. Gentlemen's dresses, comprising cape, overalls, and hood, 2.15. ; ladies' cardinal cloaks, with hoods, from 18s. N.B.

The sales consisted of 8,000 bags Mauritius Sugar, 2.38 hhds. 76 trey. St. Lucia, 118 puns. Molasses ; some small parcels of Havannah and Mocha Coffee, Cocoa, and Spices. As the market is not at all burdened with sales for the week, there ap peared rather more spirit. Sugar sold steadily, for Mauritius and B.P. when we left at firm prices. Th 2. Coffee market was also firm; but the parcels were not of sufficient magnitude to affect prices. Cocoa ap. peered to sell somewhat easier. The parcels of Spices were also small, and fetched former rates. Tea is in better enquiry, and small profits are paid on the sales of last public auction. The imports are but moderate. The business advertised for to-morrow is 1,300 boxes yellow Havannah Sugar, 500 bags Havannah Coffee, 075 brls. Porto Rico, 480 bags Ceylon, and two small parcels Jamaica and Berbice, 1733 bags Saltpetre, and some Spices. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MAY 14. We have to report a most animated day's business.

THE GLASGOW DEMONSTRATION (From the Birmingham Journal of Saturday.) The following is the letter of invitation sent to Mr. Attwood : "Glasgow, 25th April, 1838. " SIR,—In accordance with inclosed minute of committee, lam de sired to request that you and such other friends as you may think nb , ,t favourable to the cause, or most willing to aid and assist in the glorious struggle for the freedom of the masses, would be so kind as to favour us with your presence on the 21st inst. lam likewise desired to return our heartfelt thanks to the men of Birmingham for their noble and patriotic conduct in musing the country from that apathetic slumber, which we feared was the emblem of political death ; and for deputing Mr. Collins for that purpose, whose cool, cautious, yet firm and deter. mined adherence to principle, has gained him both our confidence and esteem. We have many difficulties to encounter —many obstacles to overcome —many prejudices to dissipate; but the masses are with us ; and we, therefore, feel confident that you will be more cordially re ceived —more heartily responded to, and by a larger assemblage than ever congregated on the Green of Glasgow fur a similar purpose. " I have the honour, &c., " A. PURDIE, Secretary." The resolution alluded to runs thus : " Committee.rooms, 24th April, 1838. " Compeared the delegates from the various districts, factories, trades shops, and associations, when it was unanimously resolved : " That a demonstration be made in favour of Universal Suffrage, An nual Parliaments, and Vets by BaliNt, on Monday, the 21st May, and that T. Attwood, Esq., and other friends from Birmingham, should be in vited to attend, and that a Committee be appointed to correspond wit:i that gentleman, and to carry this resolution into effect." The following is a copy of Mr. Attwood'e answer : " London, May sth, 1838. " Sin,—Before I returned a reply to your letter of the 25th ult., I was desirous of consulting my friends at Birmingham. " This has occasioned some delay, which I trust you and the men of Glasgow will excuse. " Sir, I accept, with pleasure, the invitation which you love done me the honour to send me; and I will not fail to attend the great meeting at Glasgow, on Monday, the 21st inst., accompanied by four or five of my Birmingham friends, who will be appointed at a town's meeting which will be held in a few days. Pray have the goodness to inform me, as early as you can, at what hour of the day of the 21st insh, and at what place, it will be convenient to the men of Glasgow to receive us. It is of high importance that the meeting should be a day me. morable in the history of Scotland and of England. We come to you with no base pride to gratify; but we come as the representative, of millions of our countrymen, determined to unite in the great work of • restoring the prosperity, and vindicating the liberty of our country— our long oppressed, misgoverned, and exasperated country. It is this great and holy cause, therefore, which we shall represent; and in our humble persons, I doubt not that the men of Glasgow will take care, that this glorious cause shall be gloriously vindicated. " Remember — PEACE, LAW, ORDER, LOYALTY, and UNlON—these are our motto. Under these banners we will gather up the strength of the people. Under these banners the people possess a giant's strength. Rut if they once abandon them, they become but as an infant in a giant's hand. " I am, with respect, Sir, your faithful servant, " Mr. A. Purdie." " THOMAS ATT WOOD." Tue DEPUTATION.—The deputation mean to set out on Thursday. They will proceed to Manchester by the afternoon train. They will start from the Town-hall. They purpose reaching Hamilton on Sun day ; they will proceed from Hamilton to Glasgow on Monday morning, The arrangements in Glasgow, so far as we have learned, are these—the great demonstration will take place on the Green on Monday afternoon ; and in the evening there will be a soiree, at which the deputation will be present, and where their views can be more fully developed than they possibly could be in an open air meeting of 200,000 persons. On Wednesday there is to be a great meeting at Kilmarnock, which the deputation have been earnestly pressed to attend. It is still unknow❑ to us, though very probably by the time we write it will have been ar. ranged, when a meting will be held in Edinburgh, or if any meeting is to beheld which the deputation, whoseleisure is very limited, can at tend. On Saturday last our friend, John Collins, as we perceive from the Scottish Pilot, addressed a crowded meeting in the Calton convening room with great acceptance; but the Pilot does not distinctly state the result. The determination of the various towns around Glasgow to imitate its metropolitan example, has been strongly pronounced, in meetings held at Paisley, Parkhead, Beith, Kilbirnie, Houston, and Lochwinnock, at all of which Mr. Collins was present. The Paisley meeting, according to the Glasgow Chronicle, is fixed for Tuesday the 221 From Dundee we have as yet no intelligence, though we know sufficient of the character of the population not to doubt its per. feet readiness when the time comes.— Birmingham Journal. (FROM Ova OWN CORRESPONDENT.) Birmingham, Monday Evening. The Meeting, of which I apprized you in my last communi cation, took place to-day in the Town Hall, and was nume rously attended by the working classes. Awing to illness and a variety of other causes, there were not present so many of the public characters as generally attend our popular meetings. There was, however, no lack of spirit on the part of those who were present, and some very animated speeches were delivered by Messrs. Edmond, Douglas, P, H. Muntz, and Pearce, after which, four resolutions were passed ; the first was—" That a deputation from the industrious classes of Birmingham be ap pointed agreeably to invitation, to attend the great Scottish demonstration to take place at Glasgow On Monday next the 21st." In compliance with that resolution Thomas Attwood, Esq., M. P., Joshua Scholefield, Esq., M. P., and Messrs. Philip Henry Muntz, George Edmonds, Benjamin Hadley, Thomas Clutton Salt, and Robert Kellie Douglas, were ap pointed as the deputation. They leave here on Thursday, accompanied from the Town-hall to the Railway Station by the Members of the Union, bands of music, flags, &c. A petition of considerable length, and forcibly drawn up (to be called the National Petition of the Reformers of the United Kingdom) was presented and received with loud cheering. After which it was resolved, " That the Deputa tion above-named should report to a public meeting of Bir mingham and its neighbourhood, to be called for that purpose, the result of their labours in Scotland. EXTENSIVE FIRE. CONFLAGRATION OF SIR C. PRICE'S TURPEN TINE WORKS AT LIMEHOUSE. Yesterday evening,- at an early hour, these extensive and well-known works, situated at Mill-wall, Limehduse, were totally destroyed by fire, with all their contents. They were the most extensive in the metro polis, and occupied ground to the extent of seven or eight acres, the storehouses fronting the river. On the arrival of the engines the dis tillery (a building of upwards 70 feet length, 50 breadth) was wrapped in one sheet of fire. From cOriVeration with the persons who were em ployed in the distillery it appears that when the fire broke out there were upwards of forty men at work, and such was the tremendous rapidity of the conflagration that they were obliged to le..ve the building in. stantly, and were almost suffocated. Several of them were in a most deplorable condition. The distillery contained six boilers, all of which were full charged and at work. There were also four large stills, which were full of liquor, ready to be boiled off. On the stage of the distillery were two hundred and fifty barrels of tur. pristine ready to be removed to the storehouses, The calamity was soon known in the neighbourhood, and thousands of persons were in a short time exerting themselves, endeavouring to suppress the flames, but their efforts at the powerful engines had not the slightest effect upon the fire. The persons employed in the West India Dock, immediately on receiv_ ing information of the fire dispatched the Dock engines to the spot, and they were instantly got into operation. At half-past five o'clock the devouring element had a very terrific appearance, and the anxiety for the safety of the storehouses and warehouses of the firm was very great. The distillery is divided from the premises just mentioned by a narrow road, known as the Ferry-walk, but they are connected to. gether by a tunnel under the road. On each side of this passage were barrels of turpentine, piled in heaps, and the outsides ha!, by the time in question, been scorched by the flames, which were completely blown on them by a strong wind from the N.E. A most excellent plan was adopted by the firemen and the workmen in the employ of Sir Charles Price. They, on seeing the danger, at the very risk of their lives (which conduct, it is to be hoped, will not go in. noticed), commenced digging up the earth, and before the turpentine in the barrels had ignited in the tunnel completely blocked it up, form. ing a barricade, and to this circumstance alone may be said to be owing the preservation of the entire establishment. During these operations streams of liquid fire flowed into the tunnel ftom the lower story of the distillery, placing those at work in great danger, and it was only by earth being thrown on it, that it could be extinguished, The devouring element continued to burn till about seven o'clock, by which period every timber and material of a combustible character was consumed; after that the flames gradually sank within the pile of ruins. The distillery and out houses adjoining are totally destroyed, nothing remaining but the blackened walls and chimneys. In the rear of the distillery and outhouse, was a beautiful garden, which contained several valuable trees, beds of plants and flowers. It is entirely destroyed by the falling of the walls and the trampling of the firemen and the in habitants. The cause of this dreadful calamity is at present involved in mystery; it is alleged to be the negligence of the individuals em ployed in the distillery. It was understood that the premises are in. sured in the Imperial and Phcenix Fire Office to a sufficient extent to cover the destruction of the proporty by fire. Another, and for this year a final meeting of dele gates is summoned to take place in London, on Saturday next, the 15th instant, to second Sir Eardleyltuat'S renewed attempt to oh. tain immediate emancipation for tics negroes. We trust the summons will be universally and zealously answered.—Leeds Mercury. DEATII OF DU. WATSON.—Watson, whose con uexion with Thistlewood, &c., is unforgotten, expired at New York on the Uth of February, aged 72, He had suffered for some time very severely. He endured many vicissitudes whilst in America, living, at different times, in New Orleans, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Flo. rida, Charleston, B,c. His widow was at St. Louis, unaware of the death of her husband, who died in the New York Hospital, and was followed to the grave by a few friends on the 14th of February. His son, who was suspected of shooting Platt, on Snowbill, during the riots of 1819, died two years since.

HORRIBLE TRANSACTIONS ON BOARD A SLAVE SHIP. (From the Jamaica Watchman.) The brutal and inhuman conduct of persons engagc.sd in the slave trade has often, and most properly, been made the subject of animad version. We have heard of the crowded state of the vessels and the sufferings and injuries consequent upon that circumstance. 'We hare read of the negroes being thrown overboard when the pirates have been chased, and thus wholesale murder committed on the unfortunate objects of European cupidity and avarice to prevent detection and pu.nihment,and of numberless other atrocities which swell the dark catalogue of African sufferings during the voyage from Africa to the British, Spanish, or Portuguese settlements. We do not recollect, however, to have heard or read of the negroes being fed upon human flesh—the dead bodies of their unfortunate countrymen, townsmen, or relations. It appears, however, that even this has been done--that human depravity has reached to the height of feeding human beings upon the flesh of human beings who have died, perhaps of disease, or been murdered for the ex. press purpose. The inf ,rmation has been derived from two of the Afri. cans captured by her Majesty's ship Snake, and landed some short time ago at Montego Bay, and we cannot do better than lay it before the pub lic, in the words of a gentleman in this island, who, we understand, has communicated the circumstance:to the Secretary of State for:the Colonies —The act of a pirate in giving the plank to his prisoners is almost mild and justifiable when compared to the transactions which,il really believe, the present case will open to your view ; for there murders may be said to be effected in hot blood, and in order to shield the pirate's life" of crime from a death of pain and infamy. But here murder Is corn misted in cold blood—little by little, with deliberate purpose, from day to day, from motives of calculating and selecting avarice, finally to be wrought out, even atter perpetration, to a more 'deadly hue of devilish wickedness by the cold-blooded pickling and preservation of the victims, human flesh for human food. I need not here give vent to the feelings which so sickening a detail of this most 'hideous feature in the demon aspect of slavery naturally excites ; and I willingly, there_ fore, turn from them to state, that on obtaining two young girls as ap prentices, front among, I believe, some 250 captured slaves, taken by her Majesty's ship Snake a few mouths since, and while inquiring into their previous state and habits, iu order the better to know how tQ ren der them happy in their present situation, I heard some indistinct ex pression of their having been made to cat human flesh. Exc.ted by the horror of Cie supposition, I itlS'antly took the most quiet ana'sure Means of leatnin; the truth ; and by questioning, through an. interpreter of .their two country, the infamous facts were thus elicitel " That at first they were taken tolerable care of on board, but provisions became short, and then the flesh of negroes who had died was corned and boiled for them. That subsequently live negroes were killed for the purpose on sleek; part of their flesh being dressed, aii part being corned for use. That more than ohe or two"people were so killed for that special purpose. That the el..er negro. s, and not the young people, were taken. That when selected, those who were to be killed were kept on deck, the others being sent below; upon which the white people (the crew) felled them to the deck with sticks (their screams being heard by all) and them • cut their throats, when, of course, the work of pickling and preparation, for food commenced. That the slaves did not at first understand thel , were eating human flesh, but afterwards when they did so, they revolfSed at it, and much was thrown overboard." Such were the d: tails as I first u derstood them ; and though, , 0 , 1 th e whole lam satisfied they aae what was related, yet I ant 'bound to say that subsequent questioning so far confused the relation, P.'s to render it doubtful— I st, Whether or not the flesh of persons "who had not died under the knife had been corned and eaten, or ',See s , only who fell under the hands of the cut-throat traders were along: converted into pro visior s. 2d. Whether or not this prcvisioning rtiassacre commenced at an early period of the voyage or later, when, want became excessive, 3d. Whether the slaves generally loathed and threw overboard the flesh, or our particular ones only ; or 'whether the crew, finding their demoniac supplyg rejected, did: ther,iselves help to c.ist it away. And, 4th. Whc.ther or not our particular apprentices actually saw ti,ser murders perpetrated, or only heard the screams of the poor victims.'% , I have thus been scrupulous in guarding against exaggerations, because I would not leave, if possible, the slightest cavil by whir:, the excuser of such unmixed vill any (if, indeed, there can exist so l', ase an d degraded a being beyond the limit of a slaver's deck or the door o f a save importer's counting house) might be enabled to eel; bne Par ad e of the exasperation that I trust will follow the perusal r this tale, both from you and from every fellow-subject in Great Bri'.ain, or even to cast the shadow of doubt across the mind of a single li 'rener who may be in. yoked uncle; It to exert his influence in putt;,,, an end to such doings by putting an end to slavery under the only r .sfective declaration of exter minating war against slave traders. Ft ,r my part, I would not care ta allow every doubt ; the simple far:, now suddenly brought to light, "that under deliberate selection of the victims the throats of slaves aro cut, and their bodies carved up 'ay the knife, cooked, corned, and kept, and delivered as provisions t.:4 their surviving fellows on the decks, and, by the crews of slave shil?'. in open daylight," being ample, and rnore thus ample, I trust, to stir up the blood of vengeance in every British bosoia against their doubV Cursed traffic. Think of first degrading the poor beings who have been torn from their father.a., and mothers, and houses, into cannibalism, possibly on the flesh of their own elderly and endeared relations, previously to consign_ ink them to an unrewarded, a heartless, and a hopeless life of poverty, and toil. I will not st.rong you so much as to write another word; l'Alt rest in the hope that an all-wise and over-ruling God has brought&i s matter before your eyes in order that, through the means and autti'ority he has been pleased to place in your hands, His blessed provi so of " peace and good-will towards me n " may be iii Part w ° ,4- ,_ssd out by the utter subuersion of the entire system of African Trans... Atlantic and Eastern slavery. The two captured slaves from whom the relatio• was obtained are girls of about eleven or twelve, or twelve and t',,irteen, of exceedingly . .iot appear to desire con cheerful and docile dispositions. They did cealincnt, nor in the slightest degree exa r,geration, but they seemed shy of being questioned for any length of ti* .ne. I forgot to ask them what of their cannibal allowance.
